Brian Blessed (Pointless Celebrities)

[Caribeing]

Brian Blessed and his daughter on Celebrity Pointless, he must be the most pointless celebrity, loud noisy unfunny, his daughter looked liked Nurse Emmanuel from Open All Hours.

Another vote for Brian Blessed here. I love the guy!

[Stevee]

Good old fashioned Englishman, touch of eccentricity, genuine.

Not the greatest actor, but at least he deserves the sobriquet "celebrity" unlike those vacuous, reality show idiots.

Lovely bloke

[kawakiri]

I think his support of the Born Free Foundation and Hauser bears firmly puts him far from being pointless.

[grasscarp]

I used to like him on Z cars

NOX- "Mary - to be fair to you I have just spent a while going back over your previous posts and I can safely say I have not seen you post a positive comment about anyone etc..." Isn`t that called prejudice?

[naomi24]

He's probably a very nice man, but since he made shouting his 'catch phrase', I can't watch him.

[boxtops]

I don't see it as prejudice, just stating facts - negative posts?

[Zacs-Master]

Nope it's called fact. Brian was excellent in Blackadder. To call someone who has had a successful career pointless is just ridiculous.

[jno]

237SJ, "prejudice" means judging before you're in possession of the facts. Since Nox has actually spent some time studying the evidence, isn't that the very opposite of prejudice?

[Jemisa]

I always watch Pointless but I missed this one, when was it on then?
(PS Can't stand the man)

[marval]

I like him, he comes over as a really nice man.

Earlier this evening, jem, BBC1.

[237SJ]

Jno - I`m talking about certain person`s predudice as to the opinions of posters on AB (Mary T) Nothing to do with Brian Blessed.

[Frank97]

Seems like alright to me but he did ruin the Sumo on C4

[boxtops]

237, I'm not clear who you suggest is prejudiced, the OP or one of the people who has responded?

[jno]

that's exactly what I'm saying, 237SJ; I wasn't talking about Brian Blessed either. Nox has formed his opinion of Mary T *not* by prejudice but by studying the evidence of what she has posted before.

[boxtops]

.. as have others of us, jno.

[Jemisa]

Thanx Boxi, I was out then but would have recorded it if I had known.
Pity BBC don't have Plus 1.

I can't get I-Player on my PC.

jem

[237SJ]

Extacly jno - which means by studying her opinion before one is venturing into the realms of prejudice is one not?

[boxtops]

^^ Pardon?
